[X Astray] Volume 1 Released - Q/A Thread

THIS SERIES HAS NOT, I REPEAT, THIS SERIES HAS NOT BEEN LICENSED BY TOKYOPOP. THE ADVERTISEMENT IN THE FINAL VOLUME OF ASTRAY WAS IN THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE VOLUME.

There, now that the dirty work is aside, I'd like to offically announce that Zeonic-Corps.net Scanlations is official back in business and we have returned with a brand new release, in volume form might I add, for you to enjoy. Sure, this is going back in time for the Cosmic Era releases that we have done, but nonetheless, it's manga that fans haven't seen yet.

Release Date:: 2005.01.07
Volume Size:: 79.0MB
Included:: Chibi Comics / Translation of Opera / Sample of Opera (.mp3)

Torrent:: <Removed>

Brief Summary:: Shortly after leaving the Mendel Colony, Lowe and the others run smack dab into another conflict. Facing them is the Eurasian Federation's newest G-Weapon called the 'Hyperion.' Crazed 'failed-experiment' Canard Pars is on a quest to find his hypothetical 'brother' named Kira Yamato in order to eliminate him so he can be the only one left. Thrown into the mix is Prayer Reveire, a messanger on assignment from Reverand Markio who weilds the Dreadnought Gundam. As fate would have it, these two sides clash...

I just wanna snip our add from the classified thread...

IRC Channel:: #Zeonic-Corps@irc.rizon.net
IRC Contact:: Deacon_Blues, Deackychu, Teh_Deacky, or d[^_^]b
E-Mail:: deacky@gmail.com

Projects:: Current Projects include X Astray and Crossbone Gundam, but we're looking to expand for our third project (and possibly more depending on whether we get translators).

Positions::
  • TRANSLATORS:: We're looking for people fluent in Japanese as well as Traditional and Simplified Chinese to assist us with working on projects. Semi-fast turn around time is preferred but not required. We are in desperate need of translators.
  • PHOTOSHOP ARTISTS As our ever tightening deadlines creep up, we're always on a quest for perfection when it comes to editing manga. However, we're not always able to achieve perfection when it comes to releasing on time. We're looking for experienced artist to help with typesetting, page restoration as well as advertising design.
  • QUALITY CHECKING Think you have a knack for pointing out flaws? Wanna get a chance to tear someone a new ass for flubbing something up? You're just the person we want then! If you've got an eye for pinpointing errors, then contact us!
  • EDITORS We're looking for a couple more editors to tackle some older releases. If you have a knack for grammar, please contact us!
Okay, I know that some of you are wondering... WTF!? But, yes... we are back. I've decided that I can't really stop what I'm doing, and well... I have a purpose now. There is no Gundam scanlations community, so we'd like to try making a dent again. We know what fans want, we just need to bring it to them.
We're back, we're bad, we're happening. But... we need more help. I know that the Gundam community has translators, we just can't find them/lure them out of hiding. We know you want this manga, we just need some help getting it to you. Until then, feel free to ask questions about X Astray and what not in this thread.

NOTICE:: WIKIPEDIA INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SERIES IS INCORRECT AND STRETCHES THE TRUTH IN NUMEROUS WAYS.

I'm willing to do simplified Chinese translations, if it means I get to read manga. Where do I sign up?

personally i knew about this series a long time from "New-Type USA" at first i thought it was an anime but i could find no release or news about it on the net. so far the manga is great and the art is better but the best part was the showing of Dreadnought and Hyperion Gundams appearance. i saw these mobile suits in that PS2 game "Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Never Ending Tomorrow" and i always wanted to know the entire story on them. all i knew from the "New-Type USA" was that they were searching for Kira so i can't wait to see what happens next and see if Kira makes an appearance in this series but with what mobile suit? maybe they rebuilt Freedom in this series and kept it in the hanger till it's re-appearance in "Gundam Seed Destiny".

so does that mean you saw the entire series? it's only up to volume 2? but it would have been cool to see Hyperion and Freedom go at it see how Kira counters the beam shield.

At first I was like, "How can anyone beat Hyperion's beam shield!?", but now after thinking about it, all you have to do is survive 5 minutes and moderately attack so that Canard thinks you aren't just trying to wear him down......

but i didn't mean when he had the entire shield around him just the one on his arm would have made a difficult diffence to break through because Freedom has nothing that can penetrate it.

Oh, then that's hypothetically easy; just hit him in the back.

Easier said than done, of course. But still entirely achievable.
